(2023) I've tasted various vintages of this wine since first visiting Ixsir over a decade ago. I have tobsay this isbthe best vintage yet of this Obedei, Muscat and Viognier blend. The floral of the aromas are presumably driven by the Muscat, to  delightful effect, musky, peachy and with lots of fragrance. The palate does somehow reflect that aromatic exuberance, lots of juicy peach, keen lime and a bracing saline-infused finish. Delicious, but with a bit of muscle too.
(2022) A blend of Muscat, Obeidi and Viognier from Ixsir's high altitude vineyards in Lebanon, this is fragrant, with the Muscat component driving the floral, jasmine and talcum aromas, but there's a hint of lemon and melon rind grip beneath. In the mouth that Muscat character dominates again, but there's a phenolic, pithy serious bit of acidity and grip here, swinging from juicy nectarine to lemon pith, in a textural, big mouthful of wine.
